And we can only hope that you will notice that complaining about the use
of "bullshit" as "profanity" leads immediately to /real/ swearing and
annoyance.  I think you sometimes read c.l.c++ - we do not need another
WoodBrian here, and certainly not the childish WoodBrian and Mr. Flibble
competitions about who can be the most annoying poster.

So grow up, and stop complaining about language that most people find
totally harmless.  Reserve your complaints for more serious ugly or
insulting language.

Most people /are/ bothered by out-of-context and excessive profanity.
Like most people, I don't like to see language such as in Melzzzzz's
second post - and thus I don't like people to make posts like yours that
directly provoke that kind of language.  When you complain about a
harmless word, you are knowingly and willingly encouraging such
language.  If the minor profanity in Melzzzzz's first post is a "sin",
then /provoking/ his second post is definitely also a "sin" - and so I
ask you not do do so again.

And that, I hope (as you say, "hope" is alive and well), is the end of
this nonsense and the last we will see on the topic.

How does this work? Do you assume that anyone who replies to you honors your
god unless proven otherwise, or do you only reply to people who explicitly
honor your god? You know that the first case is false in many cases, and in
the second case you're going to get very quiet in this group from now on.

And when a person feels he or she is losing a discussion with you, can he/she
stop you from replying with a simple bit of profanity?

The people here know me.  They know I am a Christian and that I teach
consistently the path to salvation through Jesus Christ.  I teach with
Bible verses, things that occur to me, impromptu responses, etc.

Those who are regulars will communicate with me without using profanity
if they want a reply from me.  I will give warnings, but if it persists
as with Melzzzzz, then there will be no communication.

I am not here to wallow in muck.  I am here to receive help, and to
give help, and to learn, and to teach.  I am here as everyone else
is, though I have a foundation rooted in Jesus Christ.  He teaches
us rightly, and I will walk after Him ahead of walking after anyone
else's guidance.

If someone who knows me wants to communicate with me, they will
approach me with an offering honoring my God.  If they do not, then
they will know in their defiance from the first approach that their
intent was to rebel against God, and not to communicate with me.

For those who don't know me, they'll receive the same types of
warnings I give others.  It's then up to their heart condition if
they choose to proceed in defiance and rebellion, or in submission
to decency.

-----
Basically, I ask nothing more than people would automatically offer
up to their young children:  respect toward known right behavior,
and a shunning of wrong behavior, such that the offense of the
profane babblings does not achieve any ground or foothold within
the heart and mind of the intended hearers.

Even vulgar people I've met protect their own children because they
care about them.  I ask for nothing more than the same caring, as I
also will return the same to each person ... no matter their station
in life.

-----
Some things are truly important.  Honoring God with all you do in
your life is one of them.

Best regards,
Rick C. Hodgin

How? I know you. Yet in my previous post where I asked how it works, I did
not honor your god. Remember there's a big difference between refraining
from profanity (which is just basic politeness/respect/morale, things that
do exist outside of religion too) and honoring a god. So what does an
offering honoring your god is supposed to look like in order to get a reply?
And why did you reply to me without me honoring your god?

> If they do not, then

So when someone swears at YOU, after YOU warned them about it, you
automatically assume that the swearing is not really aimed at YOU but at
your god. I don't see the logic in that, but I do see it's a convenient way
for you to redirect dirt aimed at you in your god's direction so you don't have
to deal with it yourself. I could almost argue that you don't honor your god
yourself that way.

Each person who knows me, knows who it is I worship, knows that I will
not respond to people who use profanity, and who then chooses to use
profanity, is not railing against me, but against God.  At that point
I will pray for people explicitly, rather than the general prayer I
have for "people in the Usenet groups I participate in," or "the online
community I'm engaged with."

My goals are to serve God in this world.  I teach about Him.  I teach
about the existence of sin, its toll on people (death and judgment
come through sin), and the gift of God through Jesus Christ, which is
the salvation of our souls lost in sin because of what sin means to a
universe created in and based upon truth.

As with Melzzzzz, people know full well why they are defying my request
to not use profanity.  They are doing it because they hate God and do
not want anything to do with His call upon their life.  It's why I then
move to explicit prayer at that point.  It's not a reasoned position
they've arrived at, but only a rebellious spiritual attack against God
that is at work.  Only prayer can break through such a spiritual
condition.  No amount of speaking at that point will correct the issue.
It must come from within, and that means prayer and Bible verses, and
leaving things in the hands, work, and knowledge of God's Holy Spirit,
and God the Father who sees directly into each person's core, where
they are fully revealed before Him.

People get to choose their paths.  My goals in being here are to serve
God, and lead people rightly toward Him.  The Bible teaches many people
will rebel against God continually.  But, there are also some who will
be saved.  It is for those who will be saved that men and women like me
labor.  We do not labor for those who will not be saved, so our focus
is always upon God, and not upon the requests or attacks of men and
women operating in sin.

Rick C. Hodgin

what if i told you a belive in god of unusuality (gou)
and you often profane this teachings ? im unlike you am aware that im a siner becouse i usually feel a fight of 
usuality and usuality in me and i mortal often loose and drown in sin - (this is not quite a joke i really belive in this and see it this way, ) 

do you think we should start religious war? (it seems i would be or am a bit different devoted/faithfull than you as i usually more concentrated on my own sins - yet i eventually see a sins of commonism in others but im not so
urged to repair them - as still not feeling as much competent to do that even though i feel my faith and got a more or less (more less than more) sense of my sins)

gou please forgive me i was so much usual and weak minded  in this post 9im really are but i was far and need time to recover, hope is not yet lost)

Again, your logic is flawed. People who swear at you really do swear at you,
not at the being or thing you worship.

Do you realize how arrogant this is? Assuming any hate displayed cannot
possibly have anything to do with you, and must be aimed towards your god
instead of you? Do you really think you're better than your own god?

If you dig deep, Robert, you'll find you're incorrect, and that they
are always railing against God, and not against me (or someone like
me).  It is merely that I am the physical manifestation here in the
flesh they can attack.  They can't direct their rage at God in the
flesh, which is all they understand, so they direct it at me because
I am an ambassador for God, and they can attack me directly.

Dig deep, Robert, and seek the truth.  The answers you seek are found
in Him.

If you pursue the truth, and seek after that which He's given us
through the multitude of teachings in the New Testament, then you'll
come to realize the discrepancy which exists.

That knowledge will only come in a pursuit of the truth, and an
application of the effort required to pursue the truth fully.  If
you do this, God knows it is your intent and He makes it possible
for you to then come to the understanding.

You don't need me or anyone else to guide you.  Set your sights on
the truth and pursue it and He will do the rest.

Best regards,
Rick C. Hodgin

I am also ambassador of God, though i will not 
call attacks on me attacks on gou - so we differ here

note BTW how gou is both forgiving and unforgiving 
in same time
1) if i would think youre an idiot gou would expact me to build much more complex and uncommon opinion so gou is forgiving to you (becouse i somewhat expact form side opinion that this cant be totally bad (at least it can be common and simple it must be more complex so it brings some spirit and it has imo 'reliving' value 0- so maybe it is no bad no good (?) but it is always reliving) )
2) if i would not build higher uncommon opinion i make sin against gou and gou will not help me here and i am alone with my heavy sin crushed by it (here gou is not forgiving
but my hope is to listen to him and go towards him as
he is good and he let me abandon my sins who crush and waste me)

So you sincerely believe that NOTHING you do personally can cause others to
swear at you. I happen to have a colleague who is VERY good at his job, but

you. But we know he is autistic (diagnosed) and just can't help it. What's

I prefer a simple yes or no from you. You're just avoiding the question.
Again, as with the insults, when things get tough you just pass all the dirt on
to your god. Very convenient, but not very convincing.

This is where typewritten text-based messages without looking at
someone's face, hearing their tone, or having the context of real
communication, hinders a person's understanding.  A bunch of pre-
conceived assumptions jump in and scream, "Me!  Me!  Me!"

We have control over ourselves.  Nothing another person does can
make a person respond in any particular way.  However, people being
as they are in sin, there are many things that stir up the flesh.
It's why Christians are called by God to holiness, so that we are
not focused upon the flesh, lusts of the flesh, responding to the
lusts of the flesh, but are, instead, following after His Holy
Spirit, which allows us to "mortify the flesh" (as the Bible calls
it).

You will not find me at any point blaming anyone else.  It is the
way of things, Robert.  It's why I tell you to dig deep and seek the
whole truth.

Satan operates in people.  His evil spirit has introduced thoughts,
feelings, emotions, beliefs, teachings, even doctrinal beliefs at
church which supersede those of the Bible.

Satan likes to pin people down to constraints which force a flesh-
based answer only, something that a person could reason themselves
into through flesh-based logic.

-----
God is not flesh.  Jesus was flesh, and when He returns He will be
here physically again.  But right now, God is spirit.  And the way
you must come to God and understand is through the spirit.

Satan uses his spiritual influence upon your flesh to misdirect you
into all manner of sin and falseness.  It's why the answers I give
people do not always address their question.  Their question has
literally come from Satan (in one way or another).  My response
does not address Satan's inquiry directly, but teaches the thing
God would have taught in that circumstance (as by studying and
applying the teachings of Jesus Christ in the Bible, and having an
active life lived in pursuit of His Holy Spirit).

-----
Jesus is not like other things, Robert.  Until you pursue Him as
He is, you will never find Him.  You can look everywhere else in
the entire universe ... but until you humble yourself and seek the
truth honestly with a full effort ... Satan has you.

You can see if this true for yourself:

    (1)  Are you a sinner (by Biblical standards)?
    (2)  What good work can you do to cancel out your prior sin?
    (3)  Are you continuing to sin (by Biblical standards)?
    (4)  What hope do you have in yourself, a sinner from birth?

Jesus is the answer to every ill there is on this planet.  War,
disease, death, famine, everything.  If people sought after Jesus
Christ and His true teachings, this world would be a paradise.

Best regards,
Rick C. Hodgin

You're the one making assumptions. Assumptions about who or wat it is your
opponent is really targeting with his/her profanity.

And yet you maintain that nothing YOU do can cause anyone to swear at you.

Again, you're avoiding the question. Lots of text, but no answer.
